CAREER OBJECTIVE
A research associate/scientist position in a biotechnology-based
academic institute and industrial company utilizing hands-on Molecular
biology, cell biology and immunology techniques under GLP to carry out
experiments for research and development.
BACKGROUND SUMMARY
Many year laboratory hands on experiences in molecular biology, cell
biology, Microbiology, biochemistry and immunology in academic institutes
and industrial companies. Independently designed, developed and carried out
experiments, in vitro and in vivo; excellent computer skills. Demonstrated
team player with excellent presentation and communication skills.
TECHNICAL SKILLS
1. Molecular Biological techniques: DNA cloning, mRNA isolation and RT-
PCR, cDNA and genomic libraries screening, protein-protein interaction
screening based on Yeast Two Hybrid System and mammalian cell system;
Site-directed mutagenesis, qPCR.
2. Cellular techniques: Well-experienced in cell culture, prepare target
gene constructs and make stable cell lines in HEK293, CHO and other
host cell lines; familiar with Flp-In and Gene-switch expression
system, cellular transduction pathway analysis, and cell-based HTS
with Flipr-Tetra(Molecular Devices), calcium Imaging system, Bio-
Mek(Backman Coutler) liquid handling system, and flow cytometry.
3. Animal Experiment and Immunology: Immuned mice, titrate the antibody
in blood, isolate B-cells from spleen to fusion with myloma to form
hybridoma, and screen high affinity Mab clones, purified Mab from
ascites or culture medium, well-experienced in antigen-antibody
immunoassays, especially in ELISA and rapid test.
4. Microbiology and Biochemistry: Worked on prokaryotic and eukaryotic
expression systems, Familiar with HPLC, FPLC, SDS-PAGE, Western blot,
immuno-precipitation to purify and/or analyze target proteins.
5. Common laboratory techniques: well-experienced laboratory protocol
writing as SOP, experimental data collection and site inventory
management. And good training in maintenance of all lab regular
equipment, such as UV Spectrophotometer, Ultra-centrifuge,
programmable 96-well plate reader, image density photometer, vi-cell,
Nanodrop, Fluorescence microscope, etc.
